“useful templates but pricey”
Pros
Pretty easy to use because there were plenty of templates to choose from. It also came with a lot of built-in tools which made things like setting up email, handling SEO and connecting social media much more manageable.
Cons
The pricing felt higher than a lot of competing options and whenever I needed to make changes, it almost seemed like I had to start over which made the process more frustrating than it should have been. I was also warned that it may not support larger businesses very well if my company expanded and that definitely gave me some concern.

“easy to use”
Pros
Compared with other website builders I've tried, the software has been one of the most user friendly platforms to work with. After getting my site set up, I've been able to handle both small updates and bigger changes on my own without needing extra help. The customer-to-owner messaging feature is easy and the mobile app is also very simple to use and communicate through.
Cons
A few of the terms and website-related jargon can be hard to understand. It's also not very clear when it comes to adding or removing authorized users.

“helpful analytics”
Pros
It is quite convenient to use and it makes collecting ecommerce data simple which is really useful for analysis.
Cons
One downside is that the backend can feel a little slow at times when moving between sections.

“loved the features”
Pros
The software comes with well-designed templates that I can customize without much trouble which works really well for both my business site and my personal portfolio. It also offers more functions than the website builder I was using before so it feels like a step up overall.
Cons
The downside is the pricing which feels a bit expensive compared with other website builders out there. That applies not only to the website plans but also to buying domains through the software.

“awful support and overcharging”
Pros
The templates are nice and putting a website together is fairly easy.
Cons
Trying to reach customer service has been a frustrating experience and I also feel like I was overcharged. The list of issues keeps going and overall I think this is an awful company.

“great support that saved it”
Pros
A big reason I'm leaving this review is the customer support I received. I was connected with this one rep and they were absolutely fabulous. My issue was pretty complicated and they stayed with me for more than an hour helping me troubleshoot everything. I was also on the line with Legal Zoom which is where the original problem started and while their team wasn't helpful at all, the same rep worked with me to figure out a workaround. I already like the software overall but this review is really because of how outstanding that support experience was. Thank you to the team!!! The only reason my recommendation score is 8/10 instead of higher is because there isn't a clear help number available.
Cons
The part I really dislike is that there's no direct support number to call. Instead you have to go through a chatbot and get redirected through chat forums before reaching an actual person on the phone. That was incredibly frustrating until I finally got connected with this wonderful rep who was able to help.

“All in one essential”
Pros
Having everything in one place for my spa has been a huge plus. The website, bookings, payments and automations are all built in and honestly it feels like an ideal solution for what I need.
Cons
The only thing I'd want is the ability to handle absolutely everything from my phone though I realize that's probably not very realistic.

“Make websites without coding”
Pros
Building a polished, attractive website is very achievable with the software. The drag and drop editor is easy to use, there's a large collection of templates to choose from and the customization options give you plenty of control over how your site looks. On top of that, the App Market offers lots of extra features which makes it easier to extend functions and modify the site even further.
Cons
The free version does come with limitations and if you want access to more advanced tools and features, you'll need to upgrade to a paid plan.

“packed with tools”
Pros
Getting started with the software feels very easy and it comes with a huge range of tools plus the software apps that can really help as your business or site grows.
Cons
Personally, I don't think the software looks quite as professional as the GoDaddy website builder but it does offer plenty of tools and analytics apps to support your growth and track your progress.

“user friendly site builder”
Pros
Building a website with the software feels very approachable and even without strong design skills, just about anyone can put together a site with it.
Cons
It's not the most flexible platform out there. On top of that, they changed the storage limits and now I'll have to completely redesign my website to make it work.

“so many features”
Pros
Building a website with the software feels very approachable thanks to the drag and drop editor and the built-in templates. It also covers a lot more than just design, with e-commerce support, marketing tools and an app store that includes hundreds of add-ons.
Cons
There are still some limits when it comes to advanced customization and it does not feel very reliable for larger websites. The template restrictions can also make customization feel a bit confined.

“templates work better than features”
Pros
There were a few website templates available that were simple but still effective.
Cons
A number of the site features and functions were awkward to use and the final result on the live site didn't always match what was shown during the design stage.

“Helped launch my web career”
Pros
A user friendly interface made all the difference for me. I had zero experience when I first started building websites in 2016 and now I'm getting paid thousands of dollars to create sites. the software has remained my number one platform the whole time.
Cons
One area that hasn't been as strong is the Google search side of things. Getting a site ranked number one on Google can be difficult and I'm not really sure why.
